While I still have not heard from anyone at Rollins College, I received an email yesterday from the area director of InterVarsity stating the following.
"We are deeply disappointed with the decision of the Rollins Board of Trustees and hope that they will reconsider their decision. We feel that this decision actually works against their value for promoting diversity and tolerance on campus. However, though we are disappointed, we also still deeply love the students, faculty and staff at Rollins and want to serve them in any way that we can, even as an off-campus group. We do not see the college as an enemy or opponent, but a place that Jesus deeply cares about, thus our call is to continue caring as well."
Yikes. Hateful, racist, intolerant stuff right there. (In case it wasn't painfully obvious, I am being sarcastic.)
Still waiting (and hoping) for a response from Rollins, but I am grateful to have heard from InterVarsity in such a speedy manner.
